A Visual Ode To Food, Travel & People

I'm not a summer person. Whilst most people I know are relishing every moment of sun they get, I prefer to hide away and employ any device I can to keep cool. So summer heat? nope. But summer food? Keep it coming! Two of my favourites are coconut and lime. I love how the refreshing citrus scent lingers on my fingers and throughout my kitchen after making these baked doughnuts. Hope you enjoy this extremely quick and easy recipe.

Pre-heat the oven to 180°C. In one bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients for the doughnuts (130ml coconut milk, 1 large egg and 2 tbsp olive oil). In another bowl, combine the dry ingredients (125g plain flour, 1 tsp baking powder, a pinch of salt, 75g white caster sugar and the zest of 2 limes). Fold the dry mix into the wet, but take care not to over-mix. Fill 6 doughnut moulds and bake for 10 minutes. Leave to cool on a rack.

Add the juice of half a lime to 150g icing sugar, and spoon this glaze over each doughnut. Garnish with zest from one lime and a sprinkle of desiccated coconut.
